Transformational technologies, including AI-augmented software engineering (AIASE), AI coding assistants and platform engineering, will reach mainstream adoption in 2-5 years, according to the Gartner, Inc. Hype Cycle for Software Engineering, 2023.
“AI-augmented and machine learning (ML)-powered software engineering is changing the way software is being created, tested and operated, and the need for responsible AI is growing,” said Dave Micko, Senior Director Analyst at Gartner. “Practices such as platform engineering will begin injecting insights from deployed systems into the systems being developed.”
These technologies, along with others, are climbing the peak of inflated expectations and the transformational benefit they are expected to have on software engineering in the next few years could have a significant impact on an organization’s business models, driving new strategies and tactics.
